She persisted: Commander of Navy destroyer that launched missile strike on Syria is no nasty woman

CNN has been known to serve up the fake news, but the network pretty much summed up the state of the women’s movement in the U.S. with its recent tweet noting thatNew York’s “Fearless Girl” statue part ofa marketing promotion by State Street Global Advisors stood its ground, even during a light snowfall.

The media has pretty much lost what was left of its collective mind over what isn’t much more than a viral advertisement, so it’s nice to see someone give some attention to a real-life female (if you’ll excuse the gender-binary term)who could show quite a few nasty women a thing or two about women’s empowerment.
